am unable to agree with the majority o
the committee in their finding as to some mat
ters contained in the report and therefore sub
NIT the following:
1t is my opinion that when travelling on of
| fetal business the commissioners are lawfully
entitled to charge and receive railroad fare il
addition to mileage, and therefore cannot con
cur in the finding that such charges are illegal
In making the order mentioned in item 5
although not in strict accordance with law, vel
| it was done in good faith, and | am satisfied
that both Cope and Meehan rendered valuable
service to the county under said order.
In the matter of procuring supplies-other
county officers are equally responsible with the
the commissioners, tor the reason that hills
are required to be first certified by them to be
correct before the order for payment is made.
As to the item of Sl4S 90 paid Mr. Cope for
experimenting bridges: The fact is, that out
of that amount he paid to one John Smith
a bill OF $62 80 for certain material furnished
and labor for the building of said bridges,
which left him but SS5 10 for his services and
expenses as such superintendent.
1t nay be that the supervision of the Nation
al road might be done at less expense, yet |
am satisfied that the amount received therefor
by Mr.. Cope is not more than such service
is reasonably worth.
In my judgment it is but justice to the COM
missioners to say that they have transacted an
uuusully large amount of business. that their
fidelity to the interests of the county in the
management of the building OF the new court
house is especially commendable.
That they have done what they believed to
be for the best interests of the county. and in
all the matters mentioned in the report, there
has been no wanton or Intentional violations
of law. ALFRED II. MITCHELL

NJ C. MONTGOMERY, of Michigan. who
resigned the Commissionership of Pat
eDts some time ago,-has been appointed
Judge of the District Court of Washing
ton, much to the disgust of local mem-
bers of the bar. who maintain that the
Office should be given to one of their
number. This action of tha President
is another confederation of the claim
that Mr.. Cleveland regards the plank in
the Democratic platform, which declares
that such Offices should be filled by resi-
dents, as purely Pickwickian.

A PARTY whose success came from
beating the bass drum of reform With
the fist Of false pretense. party thai
went into power shouting its own
righteousness and the corruption of its
adversary, is il queer position after
holding Office two years and finding
nothing to substantiate the charges of
dishonesty against previous sdninistra-
lions. Promises unfulilled because
they had false basis are embarrassing.
The Democrats realize this. Some OF
them are frank enough to admit that
the sickly outcome Of all their predic
tions about the wonderful things which
would resdlt from "an inspection of the
books" puts the party before the world
In light that renders their professions
preposterous. Up to date the most not
able achievement of the Cleveland ad'
ministration is an unintended achieve
ment, namely, the vindication of
Republican capacity. honesty, Hdelity
and efficiency in government. This has
been complete. The effect upon Demos
cratic hopes and prospects is melancholy
IN the extreme. "rhe failure to show
Republican corruption in the executive
departments" says the New York Sun.
"is serious matter, and it will be more
serious still if it is kept up during the
aext two years." Well, it will be kept
up. Republicans have no cause for
trepidation. "The books" have stood
the severe test of prejudiced and hos
tile review. And not only has the
charge of corruption been refuted but
the reckless extravaganza we used to
hear so much about is found to belong
in the same category with the Greek
Kalends. Republicans are ready To
concede certain success, to the Cleye-
land administration. 1t has succeeded
in exposing" an unassailable record
made by the Republican party during
twenty-four years of power; in expos
lug" the trustworthiness and comper
tence of that party; in exposing the
hollowDess of Democratic pm-better-
than-thou-art professions. and in show
ing that the Democratic party of to day
is controlled by and for the worst lot of
incapables ever mustered under one
banner. Gin. Times Star.

TaE recent publications concerning
tbe cure of consumption at one of the
Philadelphia hospitals by iujection of
carbonic acid gas and sulphuretted hy'
drogen prove on investigation to have
been greatly exaggerated and In some
cases wholly false. No such cures have
been made. but some of the patients
have been greatly benefited by the new
treatment. In the limited number of
cases treated the main good results
were the reduction of fever, iessening
of sweats. reduction of expectoratioD,
